Job 17:12-14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
12 They would change the night into day;
where there is darkness they talk of approaching light.
13 [a]If my only hope is dwelling in Sheol,
and spreading my couch in darkness,
14 If I am to say to the pit, “You are my father,”
and to the worm “my mother,” “my sister,”
Job 17:12-14
New International Version
Job 17:12-14
King James Version
12 They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.
13 If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.
14 I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.
